CANCELLED June 8 BCBC Apiary Inspection
Hello all of you wonderful Lord’s Acre volunteers!
Due to Mother Nature’s watering schedule, we need to cancel and reschedule our mite check and honey assessment to Saturday, June 22nd. Heavy thunderstorms are expected at about the time we are in the bees. So, mark your calendars for 2 weeks and we will call this one a wash…literally!
